We swap school-lunch lore and mustard hustles for deer-stand stories, spice catastrophes, and early-ice plans, all while sorting out what counts as “real hunting.” Comfort, patience, and good company win more than pain and swagger.

• cafeteria rules that never added up
• fifth-grade mustard resale as supply meets demand
• capsaicin science, milk vs water, and safe spice habits
• eating contest strategy, pacing, and aftermath
• deer watching over deer blasting, buck fights, wind, and restraint
• cold-weather gear, insulated stands, and staying in the game
• early-ice Red Lake for numbers, Devils Lake for giants
• live scope threading spoons through flooded timber
• waterfowl setups, brushing blinds, spinner skepticism
• thermostat wars, comfort vs cost in winter and summer
• AI as a tool for polish, not a replacement for judgment

We trade cruise myths and Halloween quirks for a fog-soaked North Dakota hunt that turns into a rescue mission with a tractor, a stuck tow truck, and a missed steak reservation. Along the way we rant about Minnesota sports, praise a local band, and count candy for 1,700 kids.

• Missing-the-boat worries and passport realities
• Beggars Night, candy etiquette, and porch-light duty
• 1,700 trick-or-treaters and crowd control
• Local band with tight harmony and small-venue charm
• Vikings frustration, clock management, and effort
• North Dakota scouting, long bar pours, and a talkative landowner
• Clay roads, dense fog, and getting stuck
• Tow truck stuck, borrowed tractor, and DIY recovery
• Late-night pizza instead of steak, lessons learned
